App Review: Ritual

Milano Coffee: 266 Adelaide St. West, Toronto.

I'm not sure if I've ever shared this with you guys, but I'm a total app junkie. Give me an app that makes my life easier, and I'll show you a happy girl. I was first turned onto the free app Ritual when complaining to a friend about the long wait time at my favourite lunch spot (#firstworldproblems, I know.) Convenience is key for me, so when I had the opportunity to try out Ritual for some cold-weather food options around Toronto I jumped at the chance. The beauty of Ritual is that you can preorder your food and drink, pay right from your phone, and it's ready for pick up when you arrive. The app even calculates your location relative to the restaurant, so it tells you exactly when to leave so that your food is hot and fresh - perfect for me who loves her lattes piping hot.

I'm super grateful to Ritual for helping me eat well and save time during my Fashion Week experience. Check out where I checked out that chilly week using my Ritual.

Evolution Food Co.: 12 Market Street, Toronto.

Portland Variety: 587 King Street West, Toronto.

Ichiban Sushi: 58 Wellington St. East, Toronto.

Caffè Artigiano: 67 Yonge Street, Toronto.

An app that keeps me fed, avoids a hanger-induced freakout in a lineup AND allows me enough time leftover to capture Instagram photos of my food? I'm in.

If you're in Toronto, or planning on visiting soon, I highly recommend that you check out Ritual for yourself. Download the app and use code JOLLE1947 for $10 towards your first meal.

What app do you use to make your life easier? Do you hate waiting for food as much as I do? Let me know!

Definitely check it out Gabriella, I think that you'll love it - especially since you're a busy lady on the go! Ritual was basically the only reason that I was able to eat during Fashion Week, so good.
